Day after day
All this fooling around
Spins me out
Wears me down
Sometimes I feel
Like I'm waiting to drown
I play my part
But I've got nothing to say

Maybe one day
I could be there with you

A beautiful lie
A beautiful lie, this life,
A beautiful lie
Where will you find yourself?

Hey now, I know
You've got your hands on the floor
A sinking ship
Made of fragile glass
But if you could fly
Like you're drawn to the light
Will you burn?
Will you shine?

Maybe one day
I will be there with you

A beautiful lie
A beautiful lie, this life,
A beautiful lie
Where will you find yourself?

I can break it with you
I can do this with you
You've got to be yourself
A beautiful lie, this life
